Abstract
A computer-implemented method that includes the actions of receiving a request for data indicative of a user segment of a social networking platform, accessing user data of the social networking platform, identifying a portion of the accessed user data, analyzing contents of the portion of the accessed user data, determining happiness scores for the users in the user segment, identifying a first subset of the users as being happy users, and identifying a second subset of the users as being unhappy users, determining a frequency at which the particular user performs one or more actions, comparing the determined frequencies at which the users in the second subset perform the one or more actions to a threshold frequency, identifying a third subset of the users included in the second subset, and generating a happiness index for the user segment that is based on one or more determined happiness scores.
